The Three Tuns was situated on Wrights Lane.

I wonder when this pub served its final drink? My memories go back as far as 1955 and earlier. I was a little girl in the early fifties (born 1947). My dad was the local blacksmith and my best friend was Maureen Skelton whose family owned The Three Tuns in Friskney. I well recall evenings spent with Maureen in the pub munching crisps (with the little blue salt twist) and drinking pop supplied by her mum and dad. I can almost still smell the beer and smoky atmosphere. I have one photo of myself and Maureen but it was taken outside my home next door to the smithy. Happy days long gone but remembered with fondness and a craving to be back there even for just one day, or hour.
